          For the Respondents    :      Mr. H. Samarjit, GA R1-6, Mr. Samarjeet,
          Sr.                                  PCCG R7.

          Date of reserved.      :      04.12.2023 & 04.04.2024.

                                JUDGMENT & ORDER
                                          (CAV)

[1]          Heard Mr. Ch. Robinchandra, learned counsel for the

petitioner, Mr. H. Samarjit, learned GA for the State respondent Nos. 1 to 6

and Mr. S. Samarjeet, learned Sr. PCCG for respondent No.7.

[2] By the present writ petition, the petitioner prayed for quashing

the impugned order dated 02.11.2017 and to grant Special Pension to the

petitioner for the service of her husband, Late, M. Suresh Singh, Constable

No.870007 under the Rules of Manipur Services (Special Pension), Rules

1982. The point for determination in the present case is whether a police

personnel discharged from service as invalid as result of injuries suffered in

attacks by militants and subsequently died, would be entitled to Special

Pension under the Rules of 1982.

[3] The facts and circumstances narrated in the petition are that

the petitioner's husband (Late) M. Suresh Singh during his life time was

WP(C)No.871 of 2017 Page 2 serving as Police Constable being Constable No.870007 in the Department

of Home, Government of Manipur and posted in the Office of the

Superintendent of Police, Senapati District. While he was in service, he had

been declared as unfit in the Government service by the State Medical Board

Manipur because he was suffering from an acute chronic mental disease

after sustaining injuries in militant attack. Therefore, he was allowed to retire

from his service on invalid pension on medical ground vide order dated

29.08.1996 as issued by the Superintendent of Police, Senapati District,

Manipur w.e.f. 29.08.1996. As per the Office record as issued by the

Superintendent of Police, Senapati District, Manipur vide letter dated

13.12.2005 the petitioner's husband initially entered his service as Police

Constable w.e.f. 12.11.1987 and retired from service on Invalid pension with

effect from 23.8.1996. The petitioner's husband (Late) M. Suresh Singh, Ex-

Constable No.870007 expired on 12.11.1996 while awaiting the releasing of

pension and other retirement benefits. During his life time he did not draw

his pension and the other retirement benefits including G.P.F. and leave

Salaries etc. On his death, he left behind his wife (the present petitioner) and

his 3(three) minor sons.

[4] On the expiry of M. Suresh Singh, Ex-Constable No.870007,

the Accountant General, Manipur issued a sanction letter dated 20.05.1997

WP(C)No.871 of 2017 Page 3 for payment of death gratuity of Rs.25,532.00p. (Rupees twenty five

thousand five hundred thirty two) only to his wife, the present writ petitioner.

Except this small amount of death gratuity, the respondents did not pay any

amount nor granted the family pension to the petitioner till date. The said

letter stated that the payment was made on the identification as per P.P.O.

No.7994. The petitioner just after the death of her husband, M. Suresh Sigh,

Ex-Constable No.870007, she had submitted all the necessary pension

papers/documents including the service book to the concerned authorities.

But the respondents did not make payment of the family pension to the

petitioner as admissible according to the existing Rules. The poor family was

wholly depended upon the monthly salaries of the deceased employees,

Late M. Suresh Singh, Ex-Constable No.870007. Due to the loss of the sole

bread winner the poor family could not find any means to manage its affairs

in the normal course of events of the day-to-day lives. The petitioner being

a widow and her sons were all minors she had lost her strength to find daily

breads. Therefore, she filed a writ petition which was registered as W.P.(C)

No.479 of 2006 praying for giving a direction to the respondents to grant

family pension as admissible under the existing rules to come to the normal

course of lives of the family otherwise the poor family members will go

starvation. During the pendency of the case the petitioner submitted a

WP(C)No.871 of 2017 Page 4 representation dated 27.12.2011 to the authorities to consider the case and

to entitle herself to get/enjoy the special pension or family pension in respect

of the death of her husband being his cause of death was due to injury

received while performing his official duties as admissible under either (i)

The Manipur Services (Special Pension) Rules, 1982 or (ii) The Manipur

Services (Extra-Ordinary Pension) Rules, 1995 and when the case was

listed for hearing on 6.1.2015 the Hon'ble High Court heard the case and on

perusal of the relevant records/documents was pleased to dispose of the

said case i.e., WP (C) No.479 of 2006 directing the respondents to consider

and dispose of the said representation dated 27.12.2011, copy of which is

to be given afresh to the respondents within a period of 1(one) week, by

taking appropriate decision within a period of 2(two) months from the date

of receipt of a copy of the representation.

[5] As per the Hon'ble High Court's order dated 6.1.2015 passed

in W.P. (C) No.479 of 2006, the petitioner through her counsel furnished the

representation dated 27.12.2011 [Annexure-A-5] submitted by her to the

authorities and the Hon'ble Court's order passed in W.P. (C) No.479 of 2006

along with a notice dated 13.1.2015 for doing the needful in terms of the

Hon'ble High Court's order.

WP(C)No.871 of 2017                                                    Page 5
 [6]           The Superintendent of Police, Senapati District in connection

with High Court's order dated 6.01.2015 passed in W.P. (C) No.479 of 2006

submitted the letter dated 28.02.2015 [Annexure-A-8] to the Inspector

General of Police (Adm.), Manipur, Imphal. The said letter clearly stated that

on 02.06.1995 at about 7:00 a.m. an incident of ambush was occurred by

suspected Kuki militant on NH-39 near Leikop, about 8 kms. South to

Kangpokpi Police Station in which R. Hopinson, IPS, the then SDPO/SPT

and C/No.867116 S. Kroni Mao succumbed to bullet injuries on the spot and

some constables/riflemen received injuries including Late M. Suresh Singh.

They were escort personnel of SDPO/SPT. It refers to case FIR

No.128(6)1995KPI-PS U/S121/121-A/307/326/302/427 IPC, 13 UA(P) act

and 25(1-B)A. Act. Accordingly, the families of R. Hopinson, IPS and

C/No.867116 S. Kroni Mao are enjoying family pension under Rule 4 of

Manipur Services (Special Pension) Rules, 1982 before introduction of

Manipur Liberalized Pension Rules, 2000. Police Constable M. Suresh

expired on 12.11.1996 due to injury caused by suspected Kuki militants by

way of ambush and torture.

[7] In the light of facts ascertained as noted above it is stated in

letter dated 28.02.2015 that the case of invalid pension in respect of Ex-

Constable No.870007 M. Suresh Singh in Senapati District Police may

WP(C)No.871 of 2017 Page 6 kindly be moved/processed with Home Department, Government of Manipur

under the Manipur Services (Special Pension) Rules, 1982/the Manipur

Services (Extra Ordinary Pension) Rules, 1995 within the meaning of Rules

4(iii) of the Manipur Services (Liberalized Pension) Rules, 2000 for the ends

of justice.

[8] Even though the Superintendent of Police, Senapati District,

Manipur submitted the detailed report of causing death of the Ex-Constable

M. Suresh Sigh (Constable No.870007) and those personnel who expired

on the spot had already granted the facility of family pension under Rule 4

of Manipur Services (Special Pension) Rules, 1982 before introduction of

Manipur Liberalized Pension Rules, 2000 the authorities failed to consider

the case of the petitioner. Being aggrieved the petitioner filed a contempt of

Court case against the authorities for wilful disobedient of the Hon'ble High

Court's order being Contempt Case (C) No.151 of 2015 and in the said

Contempt Case (C) No.151 of 2015 the respondent No.1 filed an affidavit-

in-opposition on 3.11.2017 before the Hon'ble High Court as appended an

order even No.20/1(38)/2006-H(LC): dated 2.11.2017 [Annexure-A-9]

passed by the Joint Secretary (Home), Govt. of Manipur stating that in

compliance of the Hon'ble High Court's order dated 6.1.2015 passed in

WP(C)No.871 of 2017 Page 7 W.P.(C) No.479 of 2006, the representation dated 27.11.2011 was hereby

disposed as devoid of merit.

[9] The Hon'ble High Court on the basis of the order dated

2.11.2017 filed by the respondent No.1, the Contempt Case (C) No.151 of

2015 was closed vide the order dated 3.11.2017 passed in the said contempt

case. However, the Hon'ble High Court further ordered that if the petitioner

is aggrieved by the rejection of the representation by the respondent

authorities, liberty is granted to the petitioner to approach the competent

forum for challenging the same in as much as direction of this Court was to

consider and dispose of the representation of the petitioner by the

respondents.

[10] It is stated that the respondents while considering and

examining the representation dated 27.11.2011 of the petitioner, they had

failed to consider and full examination of the Manipur Services (Special

Pension) Rules, 1982. As per Rule 2(i)(a) of the Manipur Services (Special

Pension) Rules, 1982 which clearly says that "Employees of the

government of Manipur other than Casual employees, with a minimum of

three years of service under the Government of Manipur" and, Rule 4(i) of

the Manipur Services (Special Pension) Rules, 1982 which says that "In the

event of the death of a Government servant defined in Rule 2(i) serving in

WP(C)No.871 of 2017 Page 8 connection with the affairs of the State of Manipur caused by violence, or

wrongful acts of a person or persons believed to be members of an extremist

organization, the Governor of Manipur, shall, subject to the provision of

these rules sanction a Special Pension equivalent to the "total emoluments"

(including Dearness Allowances and Compensatory allowance) last drawn

by the deceased Government Servant to the persons to draw his family

pension under the Pension Rules governing the deceased Government

Servants. Under Rule 2(i)(a) read with Rule 4(i) of the Manipur Services

(Special Pension) Rules, 1982 the petitioner is entitled to enjoy the benefit

of special pension for the past service of her husband, M. Suresh Singh,

Constable No.870007 because he had served more than three years when

he met the ambush occurred on 2.6.1995. Rule 4(i) of the Manipur Services

(Special Pension) Rules, 1982 does not say that the victim must be death at

the spot but it says that the event of death caused by violence.

Affidavit-in-Opposition of R- 3 & 4

[11] The respondent Nos. 3 & 4 filed counter affidavit stating that

with reference to para No. 3 of the writ petition, the answering deponent

humbly submits that as per office record the petitioner's husband M. Suresh

Singh joined at service on 12.11.1987 as a police constable bearing No.

870007 and he retired from service on invalid pension and struck off w.e.f.

WP(C)No.871 of 2017 Page 9 29.08.1996 and he did not die in militant attack unlike others. It is stated that

the benefits entitled with the petitioner's husband had been duly sanctioned.

It is further submitted that the Death certificated and other related

documents pertaining to invalid pension were submitted to Dy. Secretary

(Pension Cell), government of Manipur Vide letter No. 42/INVP/96-SP-SPT

dated 05.03.1997 of the Superintendent of Police, Senapati District. It is

further submitted that all necessary pension papers and documents

including the service book had been submitted to the concerned authorities

for further necessary action. However, Sr. Accounts Officer (Pension) A.G.

Manipur, Imphal vide letter No. Pen/4-282(F)/IW/2007 dated 28.01.2015

intimated the Counsel of the petitioner that Shri M. Suresh Sigh had

rendered qualifying service of 8 (eight) years 9 (nine) months and 12 days

which is less than 10 (ten) years of qualifying service under Rule 49 (i) and

50 (i) (a) of M.C.S. (Pension) Rules 1977 as amended from time to time and

he is admissible to the service gratuity and retirement gratuity as calculated

under Rule 49 and 50 ibid respectively and authorized to the petitioner under

GPO/SF/2619. Further, it was stated in the said letter that Kroni Mao Ex-

Constable 867116 and R. Hopingson, IPS were killed in the incident of

ambush but Ex. Constable No. 870007 M. Suresh Singh expired after

retirement from service. Accordingly Special pension was sanctioned to the

WP(C)No.871 of 2017 Page 10 family of the deceased employee namely Kroni Mao and Hopingson under

Rule 4 of Manipur (Special Pension) Rules, 1982 which was in force before

the introduction of Manipur Liberalized Pension Rules, 2000. By the said

letter, the Counsel of the petitioner was informed that in the above facts and

rule position, neither family pension under Rule 54 of MCS (Pension) Rules,

1977 nor Special Pension under Manipur Services (Special Pension) Rules,

1982 is applicable to the petitioner's husband. The present petitioner has

concealed this material facts of the information given by the Accountant

General, Manipur to the Counsel of the petitioner. Therefore, the present

petition is liable to be dismissed for concealment of material facts. It is

pointed out that the death of the petitioner's husband was not caused by the

violence or wrongful acts of a person or persons believed to the members of

an extremist organization. Therefore, the entitlement of special pension to

the petitioner does not arise at the in view of Rule 4 (i) of the Manipur Service

(special pension) Rules 1982 as Ex. Constable No. 870007 M. Suresh Singh

expired after being retired from service. He was not in service when at the

time of his death. Further, the petitioner's husband had not served for more

than 10 (ten) years of qualifying service as stipulated under Rule 49 (i) and

50 (a) of M.C.S. (Pension) Rules 1977 as amended from time to time.


Counter affidavit of respondent 7




WP(C)No.871 of 2017                                                   Page 11
 [12]         It is submitted that the Comptroller and Auditor General of India

discharges his functions as defined in the Articles 149, 150 & 151 of the

Constitution of India read with the Comptroller and Auditor General's

(Duties, Power and Conditions of Services) Act, 1971. Sections 10, 11 & 12

of DPC Act, 1971, which entrusts the discharge of Accounts and Entitlement

functions till he is relieved from such duties by the Governor. It is submitted

that office of the Accountant General is the field office where the concerned

Accountant General performs his/her duties within the parameters laid down

by the C&AG of India which are in consonance with the Constitution of India

read with the DPC Act, 1971. As per the existing arrangements, the C&AG

of India discharges Accounts & Entitlement related functions such as GPF,

Pension and Gazetted Entitlement in Manipur, but the administrative

authority and power vests with the State Government authorities alone. This

office has no power to implement decisions that are not in consonance with

rules, regulation and Government Instructions. The power to relax the rules

or waive any condition in the rules/instructions rests solely with the State

Government. It is only after the State Government issues a specific order in

compliance of a court's order, either relaxing the rules/instructions, the

Accountant General can implement such decisions/order. Therefore, the

primary responsibility in implementing a court's order that requires relaxation

WP(C)No.871 of 2017 Page 12 of rules/instructions rests with the state Government. This office only

implements the decisions taken by the State authorities in various issues

relating to maintenance of GPF, Pension and Gazetted Entitlement.

Therefore, it is submitted that making Accountant General responsible for a

function in which he does not have any say, except for mere compliance, is

not as per the provisions. It is stated that in order to comply with the Hon'ble

High Court of Manipur order dated 06.01.2015 passed in W.P. (C) No. 479

of 2006. Respondent No. 7, Principal Accountant General (A&E), Manipur

has requested to the Principal Secretary (Home), Government of Manipur

vide Pen-I/4-282(F)/IW/2007/582 dated 26.07.2016 to furnish a decision and

issue an appropriate order. But no response has been received from the

State authority till date. It is further submitted that if the State authority,

Government of Manipur sanctions Special pension or Liberalized pension,

Respondent No. 7, Principal Accountant General (A&E), Manipur, Imphal

will act accordingly.

Rejoinder Affidavit of the petitioner to reply of the respondent Nos. 3

& 4.

[13] The petitioner states that the respondents failed to examine the

report of the SP/Senapati District submitted on 28.02.2015 to the

WP(C)No.871 of 2017 Page 13 IGP(Admn.), Govt. of Manipur (Annexure-A8 to the writ petition). By the said

report it is clearly stated on 02.06.1995 at about 7:00 am, an incident of

ambush was occurred by suspected kuki militants on NH-39 near Leikop,

about 8 Kms South to Kangpokpi Police Station in which Shri R. Hopingson,

IPS, the then SDPO/SPT and C/No.867116 S. Kironi Mao succumbed to

bullet injuries on the spot and some constables/Riflemen received injuries

including Late M. Suresh Singh. They were escort personnel of SDPO/SPT.

It refers to Case FIR No.128(6)1995 KPI-PS U/s 121/121-

A/307/326/302/427 IPS, 13UA(P) Act and 25(1-B)A Act. Accordingly the

families of R. Hopingson, IPS and C/No 867116 S. Kironi Mao are enjoying

family pension under Rule 4 of Manipur Service (Special Pension) Rules,

1982 before introduction of Manipur Liberalized Pension Rules, 2000. The

said police constable, Mr. M. Suresh Singh(C/No.870007) after the incident

was referred to the Community Health Centre, Moirang on 13.06.1995 and

then referred to Psychiatric, J.N. Hospital, Porompat for further medical

treatment. The Doctor dealing with the P/Constable opined that he is

suffering from chronic Pranoidsche Zophrienia. Hence, invalid pension since

23.08.1996 during which P/Constable M. Suresh Singh expired on

12.11.1996 due to injury caused by suspected Kuki militants by way of

ambush and torture.

WP(C)No.871 of 2017                                               Page 14
 [14]         In the light of facts ascertained as noted above it is submitted

that the case of invalid pension in r/o Ex-Constable No.870007 M. Suresh

Singh of Senapati District police may kindly to moved/processed with Home

Department, Government of Manipur under the Manipur Services(Special

Pension) Rules, 1982/The Manipur Service(Extra ordinary Pension) Rules,

1995 within the meaning of Rules 4(III) of the Manipur Services(Liberalized

Pension) Rules, 2000 for the end of justice.

Additional Affidavit filed by the petitioner dated 01.12.2021:

[15] During the pendency of the writ petition, the petitioner filed an

application dated 28.10.2021 to the Superintendent of Police, Senapati

District, Government of Manipur requesting to issue(i) FORM M.S.P-I of

Rule 4 (ii) and (2) FORM M.S.P (II) of Rules 5(i) appended to the Manipur

Services(Special Pension) Rules, 1982 duly filled in and signed by the

concerned authorities in respect of my claim for grant of Special Pension

regarding the service of her husband Late M. Suresh Singh, Ex-Constable

No.870007 of SP/ Senapati so as to enable her to settle/finalize the claim

for grant of Special Pension. As contemplated in Rule 4 of the Special

Pension Rules 1982, the District Magistrate, Senapati certified that the

husband of the petitioner died due to the violence/wrongful act of some

extremist organisation. In the additional affidavit dated 01.12.2021, it is

WP(C)No.871 of 2017 Page 15 asserted that the petitioner is entitled to special pension for the death of her

husband. The Superintendent of Police, Senapati District, Manipur vide

letter No.B-132/SP-SPT/2016/2027 dated 22.2021 has submitted the

FORM M.S.P-I and FORM No.(ii) dully filled in and signed by the concerned

authorities under the Manipur Services(Special Pension), Rules 1982 to the

Inspector General of Police(Admn.) Manipur, Imphal.

[16] Mr. Ch. Robinchandra, learned counsel for the petitioner draws

the attention of this Court to "The Manipur Services (Special Pension) Rules,

1982". It is pointed out that the rules have been framed in order to grant

'special pension' equivalent to the 'total emoluments' to employees of State

Govt, All India Services, Central Govt. on deputation, PSU, etc. who died in

violence by members of extremist organisation. It is submitted that the rule

is a benevolent legislation of compensating family members of employees

died in militant action. As per Rule 2(a), an employee of State government

with 3 years of regular service who died in such action, is entitled to special

pension. Mr. Robinchandra reiterates that the rules do not stipulate that the

employee must die instantly in the militant action and it is sufficient that the

death must relate to militant's action. He has further pointed out that the

special pension under Rule 4(i) has to be granted upon a report of the

concerned District Magistrate to the effect that the death of the deceased

WP(C)No.871 of 2017 Page 16 government employee was caused by act of extremist organisation. Learned

counsel for the petitioner states that in the present case, the husband of the

petitioner worked more than three years as regular employee and as per

certificate of the District Magistrate, Senapati, the death was related to

action by an extremist organisation. It is also pointed out that the case of the

petitioner does not fall within the prohibited clauses as per Rule 8. Attention

is drawn to letter dated 28.02.2015 [Annexure-A-8] sent by the

Superintendent of Police Senapati to the Inspector General of Police

(Admn.), Manipur recommending the case of the petitioner's husband for

special pension. It is stated that respondent No. 4 cannot retract from its

stand in letter dated 28.02.2015 in the counter-affidavit and takes a different

stand altogether. Rule 4(ii) mandates that the certificate of the District

Magistrate is the conclusive proof that the employee died in militants' action.

It is prayed that writ petition be allowed and the respondents be directed to

grant special pension as per Rules of 1982 to the petitioner for death of her

husband.

[17] Mr. H. Samarjit, learned Government Advocate has submitted

that the Rules will be applicable to the government employee who died in

militant's action. In any case, the death must relate to violence by extremist

organisation. It is clarified that in the present case, the husband of the

WP(C)No.871 of 2017 Page 17 petitioner did not die in as a result of ambush unlike other persons and he

died due to some other disease after retirement. Hence, his case will not fall

within the purview of special pension as per Rules of 1982. It is prayed that

the writ petition be dismissed.

[18] This Court peruses the materials on record specially the rules

and the report submitted by District Magistrate and has considered the

submissions made at bar.

[19] The object behind legislating "The Manipur Services (Special

Pension) Rules, 1982" is to compensate for the loss to the family members

of government employees who died in militant action. The special pension

is awarded for a sum equivalent to the total emoluments. The requirement

is a certificate from the concerned District Magistrate to the effect that the

death was due to violence by extremist organisation and such certificate is

the conclusive proof of the nature of death as contemplated in Rule 4(ii). It

is also stipulated by Rule 8 that the death was not due to suicide or self-

injury, the government employee was not a member of any unlawful

organisation and so as the claimant. It is also seen that the rule does not

provide that the government employee should die instantly in the attack by

militant. It will be sufficed if the death is relatable to any action by extremist

WP(C)No.871 of 2017 Page 18 organisation. In lines of these conditions, each and every case has to be

examined for awarding special pension.

[20] In the present case, the husband of the petitioner sustained

injury in the attack by Kuki militants where two police personnel died and

others injured. Her husband was discharged from service as invalid pension.

He worked for more than three years as a regular employee. He did not

belong to any unlawful organisation and there are no materials that the

petitioners and her children are members of illegal organisation. The District

Magistrate, Senapati issued a certificate that the death of the husband of the

petitioner was due to the violence of extremist organisation. The injury was

not self-inflicted and it was not a case of suicide. Earlier, the respondent

No.4, ie, SP, Senapati was of the opinion in his letter dated 28.02.2015 that

the death by due to ambush by Kuki militants and the petitioner's was

covered by the special pension Rules of 1982. This Court is of the view that

the respondent No.4 now cannot plead in total contradiction to his earlier

recommendation and does a complete somersault. The respondents did not

deny the certificate issued by the District Magistrate, Senapati to the fact

that the death was due to militant's attack. The respondents cannot deny

their own document.
